Search table records by date range

1
working on a seemingly simple problem, but for some reason it is giving me a bit of a hard time.

I have a table with the following fields: FileID, FName, FPath, DateCreated, Owner.
It is a simplistic recreation of a file-search on a group of folder.

What I am trying to do is filter the table down to files where the DateCreated falls within given limits, count the number of records returned, and then use a loop to pass the FName and FPath values from each record to a simple renaming function - FileRename(Directory As String, OldName As String, NewName As String).
The new name will simply be the count number.

I suspect the best method would be using an Array which holds the result of an SQL query, but I can't quite write something that does the trick.

Any suggestions on the best route for this problem would be greatly appreciated.
